The 47 Most Ingenious Products to Come Out of Shark Tank

Some pretty good ideas have made their way to Shark Tank, like a hat that comes with a built-in beard for added facial warmth. Sheer brilliance. So we decided to put together this list of our favorite inventions featured on the show—even some that didn't get investments. Just because Kevin O'Leary wouldn't fork over the cash doesn't mean we won't.

Everyone knows the chewy, chocolatey corner or edge pieces of freshly baked brownies are the best part. With the Baker's Edge Brownie Pan, you don't have to fight anyone to the death in order to get your hands on that perfect piece! Such a relief. This pan provides every piece of brownie with that chewy goodness, all while helping it to cook evenly.

How many times have you dropped your phone, wallet, or change in the gap between your seat and the center console? Yeah, us too. It can be super distracting while driving, not to mention difficult to reach. But fear not! The Seat Gap Filler actually sits right in that crack, leaving an opening for the seatbelt, so you can protect against the rogue french fries that end up between your seat for months at a time.

The BetterBack is a posture corrector that's meant for anyone who spends a lot of time sitting (especially at a desk). It uses the tension that's created by wrapping the pad around your back and the straps around your knees to hold your spine in the perfect position. We tried the BetterBack and it took us less than five seconds to fall in love. Not only does it realign your spine, it also takes the physical pressure off your lower and upper back caused by poor posture. We say this one is not just cool, it's actually worth every penny!

These magnetic picture and poster hangers are a smart way to keep your walls hole-free, making them perfect for college students and renters. The stick-on tab goes on to the wall, and a small magnet is used on the front of the poster to keep it attached without puncturing the paper or the drywall. Genius!

This cooler is a brilliant invention that harnesses the power of ice to actually provide cold air while you're outside. I mean, who here hasn't stuck their head down just a little too close to the cooler on a hot day trying to get a taste of that sweet, sweet ice-air? Basically, this guy just blows the air right into your face. Brilliant.

BagBowls are a smart way to serve picnic food on the go. All you have to do is fold the top of a plastic bag filled with snacks over the collapsible, tube-shaped containers, and you have an instant bowl! No need to carry around bulky serving containers anymore.

Smash gender norms with these Beard Head Beanies that keep your whole face warm during winter. Choose from a variety of different styles of beards and beanie themes, and rest easy knowing you can even put a beard on your baby!

The Beer Blizzard is a simple answer to one of life's most persistent problems: warm beer. If you forgot to put your cans of beer (or any soda cans, for that matter) into the fridge, or they've just lost their ice-cold edge, pop a reusable, frozen Beer Blizzard into the divot underneath the can, and place into your favorite koozie. Voila! Your beer will instantly start to chill down. You can purchase them in six- or 12-packs, each of which comes with a complementary koozie.

Using a multistep waning system, City Kitty aims to make life for city-dwelling cat owners a little bit easier by literally potty-training your cats. If you have a small apartment, lack a convenient spot for a litter box, or you just hate scooping poop and pee all the time, this kit might be a good alternative. Plus, the savings in litter costs alone makes it worth the one-time investment. Good luck training your cat to flush, though.

If you've ever tried to cut or trim your own hair (especially your own bangs), you know that it can be nearly impossible to get an even layer. The CreaClip solves that issue. The clip combs through your hair and secures it in place, while the rotating level lets you know when you have a perfectly straight angle. Each order comes with a small straight clip and a larger curved one.

Originally funded through an Indiegogo campaign, the Fizzics system has captured the hearts of beer-lovers everywhere since day one. It can transform ordinary store-bought canned or bottled beer into a full-bodied glass that tastes fresh from the draft, without adding any chemicals or preservatives. It works with any type of beer, and even hard ciders as well.

Picking up where optical giant Warby Parker left off, Frameri has championed an ingenious new model for buying eyeglasses online. Frameri allows you to virtually try on and order prescription glasses at low prices just like Warby Parker, but the difference is that these glasses are designed so that you can swap out lenses between frames, meaning you don't have to order new lenses every time you want a new pair of glasses. You can even swap optical lenses for prescription sunglass lenses, eliminating the need to carry around two pairs of glasses. (FYI, each "collection" includes several styles of glasses that use the same lens, so you can swap lenses out within collections, but not between.)

These customizable, Instagram-worthy headphones definitely don't skimp on sound quality or style. Celebs like Rihanna, Britney Spears, and Jennifer Hudson have all been spotted wearing them, because when you're a glam AF musician (or just a regular human), you deserve seriously gorgeous headphones to match. You can choose from two different styles/sizes of over-the-ear headphones, and plenty of different swappable outer caps that you can coordinate to match your outfit.

This mastermind invention is perfect for the lazy college student or seriously busy parent who could use a few shortcuts to lighten the load (of laundry). Afresheet, which comes in twin XL and cot sizes, contains seven layers of waterproof sheets that you simply peel back and throw away after a week of use. Made to feel just like a cotton sheet, it's a comfortable and convenient alternative to making your bed like a regular person.

If you hate wearing face paint but love showing your insane team spirit, GameFace masks are a brilliant alternative. You can choose from a variety of both pro and college teams, but the company also makes solid colors, pretty patterns, and other non-sports themed masks like animals and bejeweled designs. Oh, and the mask looks backwards in the picture because that's the side that sticks right onto your face.

To everyone who has stumbled into the bathroom late at night and died because you are a witch who burns in the too-bright lights, this one's for you. Spare your retinas with the Illumibowl, a motion-sensor activated toilet light that allows you to pee in the dark without having to turn on a god-awful light.

It's like Willy Wonka IRL! Loliware makes a delicious line of edible, biodegradable cups in five different flavors, each intended to pair well with a variety of drinks, cocktails and deserts. The flavors include matcha green tea, yuzu citrus, tart cherry, and vanilla bean, plus they have a plain unflavored option.

The Mensch on a Bench is basically the Jewish kid's version of Elf on a Shelf. Parents set it up to "watch over" small children, making sure they act like mensches in the home. It's especially useful around Hanukkah time when presents abound, reminding the kids that Big Brother is watching. Kind of creepy, kind of genius.

Playing with food may not be such a bad thing. The founders behind My Fruity Faces figured out that when kids associate food with their favorite cartoons and characters, they're much more likely to eat their fruits and vegetables. Made from toxin-free, totally edible materials, they have created stickers that kids can place on their fruits and veggies at mealtime. Picky eaters, go ahead and play with your food!

Nerdwax is a genius invention that keeps your glasses from sliding down your nose ALL. THE. DAMN. TIME. All you have to do is apply a little bit of it on the nose pads of your glasses, and voila! They stay in place. Also, it looks just like a tube of chapstick, but it's not, so don't use it on your lips. Please.

The Nubrella is a personal umbrella that you wear like a backpack, which allows you to free up your hands for other activities like photography, playing Pokemon Go, and checking Google maps (what else do people do with their phones, really?). They are currently having a launch promotion where you can pay $60 for the Nubrella, which will otherwise retails for $80. They also have a backpack that attaches to the back of the Nubrella.

Do you know how many disgusting germs grow on your phone? Our phones are actually laden with more bacteria than our toilet seats. That is cringeworthy news to receive, we know. But PhoneSoap takes care of the nastiness by blasting your phone with enough UV rays to disinfect your phone by 99.9% in just five minutes.

If you've ever tried to lay out at the beach or pool and realized you either have to crank your neck all the way to the side or squash your face straight down into a towel where you can't breathe very well, this one's for you. The ergonomic PODillow allows you to actually lay face down without suffocating! Genius.

If you are looking for interesting ways to upgrade your kitchen, FridgeFronts is a great place to start. You can choose from millions of images to be printed on magnets that fit right onto refrigerators (and even dishwashers) of all shapes and sizes. We used this image from the company itself, but we urge you to choose something less weird than tigers licking each other. Pro tip: If you search the word "patterns," you'll find tons of actually great options!

The Spatty and Spatty Daddy are essentially just two tiny versions of regular spatulas meant to help you get the extra product at the bottom of your makeup, salad dressing, or lotion bottles. While it was originally invented for use with beauty products, it can also double as a useful cupcake decorating tool in the kitchen. You can buy one package meant for makeup and another for food, but we don't think there's much of a difference except the colors.

There's no way you haven't seen the Squatty Potty's amazing pooping unicorn commercial by now, but if you haven't, take a look. The Squatty Potty was invented to help people poop with greater comfort and less blockage, and people seriously swear by it. It's designed to take up the least amount of room possible and it comes in white plastic and a nicer bamboo version for the fancy pooper.

The Urbio wall planters are a smart invention meant to help urban dwellers fill their home with plants without taking up valuable apartment real estate. But whether you use them for plants or as an organization tool, the modular, magnetic components can be laid out however you want and customized to suit your needs.

The Q-flex uses acupressure (and a clever shape) to effectively target areas on your back that you wouldn't be able to reach otherwise. If you have severe back pain (ugh, who doesn't these days?!) use this tool to target those deep knots in your shoulders.

This grooming cape catches clippings from beard and mustache trimming so it doesn't end up clogging the sink or pissing off your partner who ends up having to clean it up after you! Partners of bearded people, you're welcome!
